Ah, Hollywood – the glitz ‘n’ glamor capital of America; a place where overnight success is the rule, and not the exception. OK, OK, I’ve never actually been there… but that’s why they call it California Dreamin, right? Like so many others, Booth newcomer Josh Baze treasures Tinseltown not so much for what it is, but for what it symbolizes: the fast life that lies on the other side of his grueling grind. On Hollyhood, the Big Apple singer/emcee explores his fantasy in detail, lacing Griffin Guess’ lushly-arranged instrumental (complete with a hook borrowed from the Mamas & the Papas classic name-dropped above) with vivid descriptions of his City of Gold: constant public attention, dinners at upscale restaurants and (of course) beautiful women as far as the eye can see. So, how about it, Booth readers – has Josh Baze got what it takes to achieve the high-rolling lifestyle he’s always dreamed of? If you’re leaning towards the affirmative, keep it locked – this promo single isn’t attached to any forthcoming project, but we’ll be sure to bring you all the latest from this talented up-and-comer.

Nice introduction to Mr. Baze. "Hollyhood" sounds like a record that was created for or by Bruno Mars to rock. Its the perfect definition of today's current "Hip-Pop" sound. Its not corny in any way, but radio could definitely play it out.

No radio station I'd listen to I hope, production is hopeful, but rapper needs work...

The track definitely has potential and the hook is radio friendly but for me it sounds like Baze is confined to the beat in spots. It's not bad but I think it could be much more.

This is a really impressive introduction for Josh Baze. I like the piano and guitar instrumentals, they are a good compliment to Baze's style. Baze is sort of inconsistent in his delivery. In some spots, I am really impressed with him, but, in others, he sounds like he is uneasy. Still, "Hollyhood" is a really strong display of his potential and I look forward to seeing what else Baze can do.

Not Bad for this new comer, dig the vibe and the way he flows, honestly- this type of real music is long long lost, so nice to feel something real again. Well written, agree that its very radio friendly. Wonder what is up for this duuude... NYC touch is a good thing, its funny how its about Hollywood! Or now, hollyhood. JOSH BAZE (2 points)
